Cullinan: the first SUV from Rolls-Royce
The CEO of Rolls-Royce, Torsten Müller-Ötvös, introduces few days ago Cullinan: “The super-luxury lifestyle is evolving and Rolls-Royce is in the lead. Luxury is no longer an urban concept. More and more it is about embracing and experiencing the wider world. Our customers expect to go everywhere in luxury, effortlessly and without compromise, conquering the most challenging terrain to enjoy life’s most enriching experiences, wherever they may be. For this reason, they have asked us to create a Rolls-Royce that offers uncompromised luxury wherever they dare to venture. Cullinan is that car. It is Effortless, Everywhere.
It is incomparable and dramatically evolves the parameters of super-luxury travel, translating Rolls-Royce’s ethos of ‘Effortlessness’ into physical capability, anywhere in the world. Cullinan will simply take the world in its stride.”
So it is clear that Cullinan is truly a fantastic model. Every tiny details of the vehicle are handmade in order to make it more sumptuous and regal: the style is unmistakable. From the front grille to the “Spirit of Ecstasy” the famous statue placed at the apex of the bonnet. In short, there is everything you need and for that reason you won’t be unnoticed.
Some technical specifications:
This amazing SUV is 5.34 meters long, weighs 2.7 tons, has a 6.75 litre twin-turbo V12 engine. With its 571 hp of power and 850 Nm of torque can reach a maximum speed of 250 km/h and costs more than 300 thousand Euros. And, of course, there are many different personalization options, so we can say that the constructive base is obviously of the highest level: the car takes advantage of the “Architecture of Luxury” aluminum platform, shared with the Phantom. There are also the four steering wheels and the pneumatic structure which are connected to a stereoscopic camera that scours the road to “read” the imperfections and constantly adapt the suspensions.
According to the Rolls-Royce official website: “Cullinan, the first-ever Rolls-Royce SUV, is almost ready for launch. Only its final tests stand in its way. While pre-production testing is usually conducted away from the public gaze, we have a history of trialling in the open — such is our confidence in our vehicles.” then, they added: “from Scottish highlands, to Arabian deserts. From Austrian mountains, to the epic landscapes of the United States. Cullinan conquers three continents and 12,000 miles of the world’s toughest terrain to showcase its supreme capability — in partnership with National Geographic.“
